NARS at Asos

I didn't know that Asos were doing NARS!? the two items which i would love sooo much are the Turkish Delight lipgloss (as worn by Kim Kardashian) and Mekong eyeshadow...the most beautiful brown i've ever seen!
What NARS items would you like?

Until next time

Gel nails

I am currently going gel nail crazy! I used the nailene gel nail kit to do my nails over christmas, and was impressed with how they came out. They lasted about a week, and were so easy to do

I think they looked pretty good and you get 2 applications per pack, (i think the pack was around £7-£10), so way cheaper than going to a salon.
I also used the Broadway Gel nail kit and actually prefered that one, as the nail tips were so thin and flexible and you could file them beautifully.

I am going to buy myself a proper gel nail kit with the curing lamp, so i can do them regularly and really practice, so they come out perfect. They are really expensive (around £90) but i have found a kit on Ebay from China for £28, so i will definately be buying that!!

Until next time

Current wish list

I always have a wishlist haha, but the above nameplate necklace is something i have wanted for a long time. Obviously my name is not Ashley, but it's Arabella, and i chose this necklace as i love the way the 'A' has been done. This particular necklace is from Ebay, but it comes originally from Israel. I think it's so pretty.
MAC lipliner in Oak, one in Stone and one in Stripdown
And i STILL haven't bought the lipstick Snob yet! As soon as i think i can, something else more important needs buying, but i will get it!

I actually want so much from MAC, including a mascara, foundation, oh! and an eyeliner in Smoulder. But MAC is sooo expensive.....one day i will have impressive MAC collection......probably...maybe.....but probably not...

What is on your current wishlist?
Until next time

Disney Couture Believe ring

This is my new Disney Couture Believe ring. This ring means so much to me. It is so beautiful and i love it. I have worn it every day since i got it. It is platinum plated with a tiny swarovski crystal above the 'i'

I love Disney Couture jewelery, but this is by far my most favourite item.

What do you think?

Until next time

I heart my Chanel nail polish

I haven't updated my blog in a very long time, but i have recently got the most beautiful things....Above are my Chanel nail polishes. The left one is Mica Rose and the right is Pearl Drop
Mica Rose (495) is a very sheer pale pink colour, i applied 3 coats to get it opaque. It is a beautiful delicate understated colour with very very fine shimmers of glitter throughout. I really love it.

Pearl Drop (511) is an incredible colour, as when i first looked at it i thought it was a pearly shimmery white (which it is), but after applying 3 coats, i noticed that it actually has gold running through it aswell! I used to wear white nail varnish constantly in my late teens, which was rather like Tippex, so i am over happy with this updated and more sophisticated version of my teen polish.
Can you kind of see the gold shimmer in it???
Oooooh Chanel :-)
Soooo beautiful
In all, i think these are two very pretty colours, that are fantastic for when you don't want an over the top colour on your nails.
They are extremely sophisticated colours and will be perfect for summer.
I LOVE them

Until next time

some things i've bought....

I haven't done a new post in ages. I'm not entirely sure why really. But anyway, here are my latest purchases....Above is a gorgeous pair of shoe boot type things. I bought the black ones a few months back and was really pleased to find the grey ones in Primark. The best part is that both pairs were £18 each, marked down to £4.00 each!
This cute bracelet was only 50p in the sale at Primark!! i love anything with bows on, and have a bow tattoo aswell....
A lovely pearl necklace - 3 strings with a silk bow on. This necklace feels heavy and is great for only £2.50
My cute panda hat from River Island. I picked up a kids one as it was only £7.99 rather than £12.99 for the adult one, and actually fits me better. Really love this, and it's keeping me nice and warm in all this snowy weather
And last of all, 4 pairs of knee high socks from Primark - think they were about £1.50 a pair. Great for going under my boots.

That's all. This post is a bit rubbish, i'm feeling rather 'quiet' this evening.....

Until next time
